Not watching, but 20m is indeed an impressive height. I can just imagine what kind of moves they're making.

watched the 20m. they had the board in the bay.that looked like they were diving from the 2nd or 3rd floor from a building. i was cringing. the commentator was saying this was the first time that height was at any event. the divers enetered the water with their feer and there was like scuba diva like people waiting at the bottom to make sure each diver came up and they had to indicate that they were ok.

yes we took gold - chad le clos 200 m butterfly.
cameron van den berg got a medal in the 50 m breast stroke.
the other south african wasn't swimming the back stroke sorry he was in the same event as cameron v d berg and he got bronze.

sorry i wanted to give updates here but it was difficult with only 1 arm.

Is it the same event that Roland Schoeman took double-gold in? I saw something in the M&G.
